Descripción del proyecto
Borylated molecules are some integral tools routinely used to aid molecular construction in both academia and industry. Their use in the Nobel Prize-winning Brown oxidation and Suzuki-Miyaura cross-coupling as well as Chan-Lam amination make them ubiquitous in organic synthesis.
The invention of methods to form C–B bonds at sp3 carbons is of strategic importance to facilitate the preparation of saturated, hence 3D, molecules. As the pharmaceutical sector is aware of the greater clinical success of 3D molecules, developing methods able to prepare these materials is a topic of continuous scientific endeavour. Central to this quest is designing synthetic strategies able to deliver, in a divergent manner, building blocks that are stable and can be used in modular cross-coupling diversifications.
This project seeks to substantially expand the fields of photoredox catalysis and boron chemistry by introducing a novel class of boryl radical precursors that will enable the generation and the use of these underdeveloped species in mainstream catalysis. This strategy will constitute a divergent platform for the generation of many novel 3D borylated molecules that will then be engaged in modular cross-coupling reactivity. Importantly, this project will provide access to materials that cannot be prepared by any other method.
This research capitalizes on recent developments of the Leonori group that has experience in the generation and use of boryl radicals in synthesis.
The completion of such an innovative and ambitious project at RWTH Aachen University will be facilitated by generating, transferring, sharing and disseminating knowledge, and will enhance my future career following the training plan envisioned.
